Elevate your jewellery collection with these stunning Raven and Eagle earrings, making every day a little more stylish. Designed by Jaada-Sk’iila—Gina Mae Schubert (Yahgulanaas, Haida), these earrings represent the two clans of the Haida Nation: Raven and Eagle. The clans represent balance, as Ravens and Eagles traditionally married one another and each group would support the other through times of celebration and grief. This design symbolizes unity, resilience and the cultural values that have sustained generations.
Jaada-Sk’iila—Gina Mae Schubert is a contemporary artist skilled in both interior and industrial design and works in many mediums: metal sculpture, painting, digital illustration, poetry, wood sculpture, jewellery, fashion and media. Her work embodies her passion for the earth, humanity and her Haida Culture. She believes in elevating the divine feminine in all that she creates and is an activist for the protection of children, Mother Earth, human, and First Nations rights.
Preservation of the Haida language and storytelling is integral to Schubert’s artwork and design. In media, she is a powerful advocate for the voices of First Nations women and carries on the tradition of spoken word, mythologies and passing down of ancestral knowledge.
